Chapter 128
「… Wa ~pu」(Arge)
I used my fang on the side to bite on a fresh grilled fish without refraining .
I could feel the sweetness of the oil melted out from grilling on the tongue, it feels so nice .
This fish looked like a saury, but its taste resembled a sea bream . To be honest, it was very tasty .
As I finished the grilled fish, I licked the oil and flesh of fish on the edge of my lip . It’s delicious .
The body of the exquisite grilled fish is dark, it tastes great every time I chew on it .
「… It’s really delicious!」 (Arge)
「I’m glad to hear so, customer . Do you want some more?」(Octapus man)
「Yeah, thank you … but it’s strange, how can you grill fish in a submarine city?」(Arge)
「This place is a special space that Kutira-sama made with magic . Any creature can breath in this place, not only the ocean demons, beside you can even use fire . Even we are in the water but it also seems like we aren’t in the water as well … I’m just the owner of a standing shop, I don’t understand details!」(Octapus man)
The owner in front me me is a Ocean demon, who looks like an octapus . He opened his big mouth and laughed . From the voice and tension, this one must be a man .
Several days have passed since I came to this underwater city, which is the area of the Ocean demon . Even though I said a few days, but the light didn’t reach this place, so I couldn’t be sure .
The state of the town was really peaceful and well managed .
It is a mixed group of various type of Ocean demon, but they didn’t quarrel and rather live peacefully together . As I was walking around in the town, I could see the scene of them talking with each other . And I could see a something that can be called a horse carriage … It was complicate, but you could call it a carriage with demons similar to big seahorses were pulling it .
There were some luminescing insects in street lights that set up around the town . The street lights here didn’t use flame or magic but the gentle light emitted by living things, they were illuminating the whole city . They seems to be a creature derived from the deep ocean called sea firefly .
I ate and tasted the grilled fish slowly while watching the streets . I left the bone and tail, passed on to the shopkeeper the part I couldn’t eat and I started to walk .
Because I was in the water, the weight of the foot to step on is different from the ground . At first I was perplexed by a clinging sensation, but it would be a little fun once I got used to it . It was as if I was in a low gravity space
If I stepped forward with a little force, I would start floating . My body fleat like escaping from gravity . I could jump over from building to building even without my power .
「… It’s a little fun but I am in trouble」(Arge)
I used my hands to hold down the skirt so it wouldn’t soar, I landed and started walking around the town again .
「A silver haired customer, hello!」(???)
「Eh, Hello」(Arge)
「Customer, did you try to find something?」(???)
「I want to find place where I can take a nap」(Arge)
Even I was just walking, I could hear the calls from here and there . It was invitations .
Far from being wary, every was quite friendly . And if I wanted something like before, you could shop with Cyril coins .
The townscape is in place, their language is republican, the currency system are used by all residents, it is peaceful .
However, as I’m walking in the streets, I often gets a mysterious feeling .
… I feel like I saw it somewhere before .
I am walking and I have a de-ja-vu feeling . It feels like a scenery I have seen before .
Of course, I haven’t seen such a scenery after being born in this world, nor have I seen it in the previous life . This is definitely my first experience to walk in an underwater city .
But why did I feel this way? It felt like a nostalgic feeling, a strange feeling .
When I inhaled deeply, I could feel the scent of the tide . It is a strange feeling to breathe seawater, but the rich fragrance that touches the sense of smell is definitely of the sea .
Even I feels bad about the mysterious feeling from my memory, but the people here are gentle, so I don’t dislike this town itself . Rather, it’s easy to take a nap, so I think I’d like this comfortable place .
This is a mysterious place that there’s no concept of morning and evening, or time feeling, but it isn’t a bad place .
「Arge!」(Felnote)
「Ah, Felnote-san」 (Arge)
I heard the voice from an acquaintance when I was deep in thought .
Felnote-san was just like me, she didn’t walk on the road but she swam underwater .
As she swam, her brown side tail waved like a fish’s tail . She landed next to me . Her big chest with overwhelming presence in the water shook like defy gravity .
「Oh,… it’s shaking …」(Arge)
「Ah, that’s right … my hair shakes because the water current but they also shake witht the wind, too」(Felnote)
Although what I talked wasn’t about hair, but I decided to keep silent . I felt like she would angry when I corrected it .
「Fu fu, I see … So Arge begins to notice about that sort of thing … it’s a nice thing . Well, you are a girl」(Felnote)
I don’t really understand, but I know that I shouldn’t correct Felnote-san .
Anyway, she came to me, so there must be something she need me for . So let’s ask her .
「By the way, Felnote-san, do you need something?」(Arge)
「No, I don’t really have anything particular in mind, but … Ah, that’s right, this is it」(Felnote)
Saying that, Felnote-san handed out something .
It was a seaweed that resembled a small muscat, swayed with the ocean current like a gentle wind .
I do not know the name in other world, but when I apply it to my skill, it was a memorable one .
「Sea grapes……」(Arge)
「Oh, you knew about it? It seems like it’s growing around here, and I think that Arge would like it because it is delicious」(Felnote)
Apparently I was successful to call out the name with the effect of language translation skill .
I took the grapes and put it, the texture is pleasant . Because the taste of the fish that still remained in my mouth, the fruit refreshing the taste on my mouth made it felt even better .
「This is a nice place, isn’t it?」(Felnote)
「Do you think so, Felnote-san?」(Arge)
「Yes, it is peaceful, it is well maintained as a town, the difference between rich and poor is also in an aceptable range, and there’re no orphans …
To be honest, there were many dangerous demons in the deep sea, and I thought that this place would be more rough」(Felnote)
Felnote-san seemed to have the same opinion me, and he looked closely at the surroundings .
「There is such a solid city in the bottom of the ocean … that I don’t know about .
And to think that I said I would teach you the common sense and everything about this world . This world is wide world . This is the first time I see this place and I’m happy, to be honest」(Felnote)
A small fish swam next to Felnote-san who made an adorable voices .
Yes, I can feel the smell, I can breathe, and I can the sight . It is comfortable to have the ocean current strokes the skin like the wind flows .
As Felnote-san said, this is the first time I see this place .
But I wonder why I remember this feeling .
「What’s wrong, Arge?」(Felnote)
「… No, there is nothing wrong」(Arge)
Even I had an unexplained feeling, I didn’t tell it to Felnote-san . If this feeling was somehow related to my previous life, I couldn’t say it to her .
At least, it would be better to keep it silent until I know the identity of this strange feeling .
